The two cuddled in the car for a long time.
Eventually, both of them were breathing heavily.
Seeing that it was time for dinner, Cheng Lu pushed him away and then lowered her head to straighten her clothes.
The key focus was on smoothing out the collar.
While she was straightening her clothes, Xu Xiuwen was grinning.
Just now, with his persistence, they had made significant progress.
After finishing straightening her clothes, Cheng Lu saw Xu Xiuwen still smirking and gave him a glare, saying, "Look at you, you pervert."
Xu Xiuwen didn't argue. Whether he was perverted or not didn't matter; what mattered was that he could "get the meat."
Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Xiuwen drove Cheng Lu to East Street for dinner.
They definitely couldn't go to the university cafeteria; it was too easy to run into acquaintances.
The car drove to East Street, found a parking spot, and parked.
Xu Xiuwen was about to get out of the car when he received two text messages.
The first one was from Xiao Youran: "Shishi and I are going to the cafeteria for dinner."
The second one was from An Shishi: "Hubby, you're with Cheng Lu, right? Youran and I are going to the cafeteria, so you better not be there too."
Xu Xiuwen didn't reply to the texts immediately.
He accompanied Cheng Lu into a restaurant, let her order the food, and then took the opportunity to go to the bathroom to reply to the two girls.
To Xiao Youran, he texted: "Okay, enjoy your meal. I won't come to find you."
To An Shishi, he texted: "I'll be at Jiangning Garden(Huayuan) tonight."
After replying to the texts, Xu Xiuwen washed his hands and walked out of the bathroom, returning to Cheng Lu's side.
Cheng Lu was very good at taking care of others' feelings, much better than Xiao Youran in this aspect.
For example, when having lunch with Xiao Youran, she would order dishes she liked.
But Cheng Lu ordered dishes that Xu Xiuwen liked.
Xu Xiuwen didn't think less of Xiao Youran because of her choices; he wasn't that petty.
It's just that Cheng Lu's approach was more considerate.
After having dinner with Cheng Lu, Xu Xiuwen sent her back to her dorm.
It was raining, so there was no point in going for a walk. They could chat later, and besides, Cheng Lu still had to unpack her luggage.
Of course, the most important reason was that Xu Xiuwen had already made plans with An Shishi.
Although he enjoyed his time with Cheng Lu, thinking about how An Shishi had teasingly slid her black silk-clad foot under the table earlier that day made Xu Xiuwen's heart race.
He dropped Cheng Lu off near the girls' dormitory.
He didn't know if An Shishi had returned from the cafeteria, nor did he wait downstairs for her to bring her along.
That would be too conspicuous.
Xu Xiuwen drove directly to Jiangning Garden.
Arriving at the house, he opened the door and went in.
The slippers were still on the shoe rack at the entrance.
It seemed An Shishi hadn't arrived yet.
Xu Xiuwen changed into slippers and walked to the living room.
Feeling a bit thirsty, he headed to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, he picked up a cup, filled it with purified water, and drank.
He didn't notice a dark shadow quietly approaching.
The shadow quickly reached Xu Xiuwen's back.
Xu Xiuwen noticed the additional shadow on the ground and was startled.
Just as he was about to turn around, the shadow suddenly hugged him from behind.
The person behind him laughed and said, "Honey, you're back."
Xu Xiuwen's tense body relaxed instantly.
This sweet, sticky tone could only belong to An Shishi.
He put down the cup, turned to look at An Shishi, and said, "You walked over without making any noise. You scared me."
He glanced down and saw that An Shishi wasn't wearing any shoes.
Her bare feet were on the floor.
No wonder she made no noise when walking over.
Thinking about the slippers on the shoe rack, Xu Xiuwen immediately understood that An Shishi had tricked him into thinking she wasn't there yet.
He glared at An Shishi.
This playful act was something Bai Yue'er would typically do, but seeing An Shishi do it was surprising.
An Shishi pouted, "Honey, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I won't do it again."
After having a full meal, it's said that people tend to think about other things.
Xu Xiuwen was no exception.
He bent down, scooped up An Shishi in his arms, and without a word, walked towards the bedroom.
An Shishi was very obedient and didn't struggle or resist.
Perhaps she knew that struggling would be futile.
Upon entering the bedroom, Xu Xiuwen noticed that the air conditioner had been on for a while, making the room quite warm.
An Shishi had thought things through carefully, which pleased him.
However, he still hadn't forgiven her.
After closing the door, Xu Xiuwen walked to the bed and threw An Shishi onto it.
An Shishi let out a startled cry, "Ah~ No!"
Her soft and voluptuous body bounced on the bed a few times.
She quickly sat up and retreated to the far corner of the bed, looking at Xu Xiuwen with wide eyes and a pleading expression, "No, I know I was wrong."
An Shishi was really something.
Her acting skills were impeccable.
Her pitiful appearance instantly ignited Xu Xiuwen's anger.
…
It was an hour later when Xu Xiuwen finally managed to subdue this little demon.
Xu Xiuwen lay on the big bed, with An Shishi nestled in his arms.
She was being quite restless.
Xu Xiuwen slapped her leg and said, "Behave."
An Shishi obediently murmured an "Oh," but within a few seconds, she started being restless again.
Xu Xiuwen felt helpless.
He picked up his phone to check the time; it was just after nine o'clock.
The dormitory hadn't closed yet, so if she left now, she could still make it back.
Xu Xiuwen patted her behind and asked, "Are you going back to the dorm tonight?"
An Shishi, lying in his arms, replied hoarsely, "I'm not going back. I already told Youran when I left that I was going to see my husband."
Hearing her mention Xiao Youran, Xu Xiuwen said irritably, "You acted so recklessly in front of Youran at noon. What if you get found out?"
An Shishi giggled, "I couldn't help it."
"Couldn't help it? I think you're just asking for trouble."
An Shishi didn't argue.
She looked at Xu Xiuwen with her big, bright eyes and said softly, "I can't resist now. Go ahead, hit me. I wouldn't mind going back to the dorm with a swollen butt tomorrow."
Xu Xiuwen felt very helpless.
He really couldn't do anything about An Shishi.
He couldn't actually spank her until she was swollen.
"Behave yourself outside. When we were having lunch, I felt like that waitress noticed something. She kept staring at me. It's not a big deal if she notices, but if Cheng Lu and Youran find out, it will be troublesome."
An Shishi nodded obediently, "I know, I won't do it again."
"Good."
After a moment of silence, An Shishi suddenly asked, "Husband, if they really find out, will you abandon me?"
Xu Xiuwen didn't reply.
Seeing his reaction, An Shishi bit her lip, looking worried.
Xu Xiuwen suddenly hugged her tightly and said, "I would never abandon you, but it would be very troublesome. I would have to persuade Cheng Lu to accept you, which is very difficult. Think about Cheng Lu's personality—she's so proud and would never agree to share her boyfriend with anyone."
He paused, then continued, "Shishi, I don't want to hide things from you. I won't give up on Cheng Lu. The best approach is to keep this a secret. So, don't act recklessly."
"Mm, I'll listen to you."
An Shishi lay on Xu Xiuwen's chest, listening to his heartbeat.
…
The next morning, Xu Xiuwen was still asleep.
An Shishi gently woke him, saying, "Husband, I made noodles for you. Get up and eat a bit; skipping breakfast isn't good for your stomach."
Xu Xiuwen opened his eyes, looked at An Shishi, smiled, and nodded.
An Shishi smiled and left the bedroom.
Xu Xiuwen got dressed, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then headed to the living room.
An Shishi had already set the table with a bowl of noodles, topped with a fried egg.
An Shishi cheerfully came over, took his arm and led him to the chair. Then she sat down across from him, resting her chin in her hands, and said, "Try it and see how it tastes."
This time, it wasn't instant noodles but dried noodles.
Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but ask, "Did you buy these yourself?"
An Shishi nodded, "After you left yesterday, I went to the nearby market, bought some groceries and staples."
Xu Xiuwen smiled and asked, "Are you planning to settle down here with me?"
"I'd love to."
Xu Xiuwen didn't respond; he picked up his chopsticks and started eating the noodles.
Because An Shishi had added green onions to the noodles, there was a faint onion fragrance. The taste was simple but delicious.
Xu Xiuwen ate a few mouthfuls and continuously praised the dish.
The smile on An Shishi's face never faded.
After breakfast, Xu Xiuwen sat on the living room sofa.
An Shishi washed the dishes and came out of the kitchen.
She walked to Xu Xiuwen's side, sat down next to him, and hugged his arm, saying, "Husband, sometimes I have to stay overnight here. Is it okay if I bring some clothes over?"
Seemingly afraid that Xu Xiuwen would refuse, she added, "Don't worry, I know the master bedroom is reserved for Cheng Lu. I'll hide my clothes in another room where they won't be found."
Xu Xiuwen glanced at her and nodded, "Sure, do as you like."
An Shishi proactively gave him a sweet kiss, "Thank you, husband."
Xu Xiuwen thought for a moment and said, "You can also put your clothes in the wardrobe of the bedroom."
An Shishi shook her head, "No, if Cheng Lu comes back and sees the clothes in the wardrobe, we'll be exposed. I've said it before, I won't compete with Cheng Lu. The master bedroom is hers. I'm satisfied with just having a room."
Whether An Shishi's words were sincere or not, they made Xu Xiuwen very happy.
He raised his hand and hugged An Shishi.
After a while, Xu Xiuwen's phone suddenly rang.
Xu Xiuwen felt his pockets but didn't find his phone.
"My phone is in the room."
He said as he was about to get up to go to the bedroom, but An Shishi stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
Seeing her go to get it, Xu Xiuwen stayed seated.
An Shishi walked into the bedroom, picked up Xu Xiuwen's phone from the bedside, and returned to the living room.
She handed the phone to Xu Xiuwen, then sat down next to him, lifting his arm and snuggling under it.
Xu Xiuwen took the phone and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Is this President Xu? I'm Xu Qian."
Xu Qian's voice came from the phone.
"What's up?"
"President Xu, we've all moved into the company dormitory, and we want to collectively invite you to dinner. Do you have time?"
Hearing Xu Qian's words, Xu Xiuwen was taken aback.
After recovering, he said, "Sure, when?"
Xu Qian, relieved that Xu Xiuwen didn't refuse, replied joyfully, "President Xu, are you free this evening?"
"Tonight?"
"Yes, President Xu."
"Tonight... alright, send me the time and address later."
"Okay, President Xu. I won't bother you any longer. See you tonight, President Xu."
"See you tonight."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but laugh.
The newly hired employees inviting him to dinner seemed amusing to him.
"Husband, why are you laughing?"
Xu Xiuwen turned to see An Shishi looking at him with big eyes.
He explained, "I started a company, right? The new employees have moved into the dormitory, and they're planning to invite me to dinner."
An Shishi, resting her face on his shoulder, asked with a smile, "Was the person who called a girl?"
"Yes, why?"
"Is she pretty?" An Shishi still smiled.
Xu Xiuwen nodded, "She is pretty."
An Shishi suddenly asked, "Husband, you don't like her, do you?"
Xu Xiuwen couldn't help but laugh, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
An Shishi shook her head, "I'm not talking nonsense. Even if you don't like her, she must like you. Otherwise, why would employees invite their boss to dinner? Husband, you're so outstanding, it's impossible for girls not to like you."
Xu Xiuwen laughed, "It's not as exaggerated as you say. Am I money? How can all the girls like me?"
An Shishi shook her head, "Husband, you have to trust my judgment. You really are exceptional."
"Alright, alright, I admit I'm outstanding. Stop overthinking. To me, they're just ordinary employees. Besides, they're not prettier than you. If you're still worried, come with me tonight."
An Shishi shook her head, "I can't go with you."
"Why not?"
"Cheng Lu is the legitimate wife. I'm just your kept woman. If I go with you, it'll be hard to explain when they see Cheng Lu in the future. I don't want to put you in a difficult position."
Xu Xiuwen was very touched by her thoughtfulness.
He said gently, "Don't put yourself down all the time. Besides not being able to give you a formal status, in my heart, you're also my girlfriend, equal to Cheng Lu. It's okay, come with me tonight."
An Shishi said, "I know you treat me well, so I have to consider you too. I can't go tonight."
Xu Xiuwen adored An Shishi's considerate nature.
